A source close to the event today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) verbal agreements are in place for the fight, which Tatame.com first reported.

Although not announced by the organization, UFC 133 could take place at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Aug.
6. The event is
expected to air on pay-per-view.

Natal vs. Fukuda is unlikely to make the broadcast.

Natal attempts his first UFC win for the third time. A veteran of the Brazilian fight circuit who later competed in the popular Northeast-based Ring of Combat, Natal signed with the UFC in 2010 and suffered a decision loss to Rich Attonito after he was dropped early. Then, despite a dominant start, he faded in the final round and fought replacement fighter Jesse Bongfeldt to a majority draw at UFC 124.

The fighter, who trains in New York City at Gracie Fusion, now meets Fukuda, who suffered a very controversial loss to Nick Ring at UFC 127 in February. Fukuda appeared the clear-cut decision winner, but the judges ultimately awarded the fight to Ring. The questionable loss snapped the former DEEP champion and onetime DREAM fighter’s seven-fight win streak.
